Site Analysis

The cricket.co.za website is built well in terms of design and user friendliness. However, in terms of search engine optimization, the cricket.co.za website has a navigation structure which does not allow search engines to really crawl and spider the rest of the website.

The Cricket.co.za website has pages that are updated on a continuous level, making sure that the information is always fresh and up to date, a fact which the search engines love.

Most of the pages on the cricket.co.za website contain a lot of HTML text, which is a great asset for doing well on the search engines, both in South Africa and around the world.
